Rob Kardashian 2015: 'KUWTK' Star Not Recognized By Lamar Odom Due To Brain Damage?

Khloe Kardashian has given an update on Lamar Odom's state this 2015 as the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" family including Rob Kardashian continue to worry for the athlete. It seemed the former NBA star has yet to fully be off the worst after being hospitalized.

As reported by TMZ, the former Los Angeles Lakers player still has a long road ahead of him in terms of getting better. Sources of the entertainment website apparently claimed the basketball star may have had some brain damage after his Las Vegas brothel incident.

According to the report, Lamar Odom "can't recognize some close friends and family" lately this 2015. It was not clear though if Rob Kardashian was among the people that the former Laker can't identify.

Khloe Kardashian did admit in an interview with Ellen DeGeneres that the former NBA star does have trouble remembering details about his life as told by Us Weekly but she did not elaborate whether recognizing family members including Rob was among those things.

"We tell him that he had a brain injury, but we can't tell him how that brain injury was caused, because that will set him back," the "Strong Looks Better Naked" author said as cited by the source above. "He's really confused a lot - sometimes he knows who the president is and his birthday, and sometimes he thinks he's 26, and I say I bet you wish you were 26, so do I!"

"He still has such a long way to go," Khloe Kardashian told Ellen DeGeneres. "He's learning to walk again, feed himself again, put sentences together and cognitively there's a lot. It's a long, long road ahead."

"He's confused a lot," she added. "We have to remind him."

Khloe Kardashian has revealed earlier this month to People magazine that her "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" family were very concerned for the former Los Angeles Lakers players especially her brother Rob Kardashian as he was close to Lamar Odom even before getting hospitalized this 2015.

"Lamar was [Rob's father figure]," the "Strong Looks Better Naked" author told the magazine. "Once Lamar left - and it's not Lamar's fault at all - I think Rob didn't know where to go. He was like, 'I don't have guidance anymore.'"
